Hello, I have been wrestling with my laptop for days now, and I'm not sure what to do. I wanted to put 5.1 on it, but booting from the CD failed. The boot halted at at line saying: agp0: <Intel 82443BX (440 BX) host to PCI bridge> mem 0-0x3ffffff at device 0.0 on pci0 After it was clear that the boot was not going to proceed, I cycled the power and the same thing happened repeatedly. I had an old 4.6.2 CD sitting around, so I installed that. I was happy that this worked and I proceeded to cvsup to the current version of 4.8 (no longer trying 5.x). After doing a make buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, the system hangs-up on boot at the exact same line. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? I would really like to get FreeBSD on this machine. :) tia Eric _______________________________________________
